Description
Achillea millefolium 'Pomegranate' (Tutti Frutti Series)
Height x Spread: 40cm x 40cm
Clusters of rich red flowers with a strong cerise hint appear in late summer over its mid green, very divided foliage. 'Pomegranate' retains its colour well even as the flowers start to go over.
Great for adding late season colour to the front of a 'hot' border, it also makes a great container plant for a sunny terrace. A good candidate for mass planting too, as it clumps up easily. Easy to grow, drought tolerant and long flowering. It prefers a reasonable soil with good drainage.
